A broad inquiry into speech, humanity, and technological change

Framed around the development of human speech, this book connects the biological and cognitive evolution of Homo sapiens with the cultural systems built through language. It traces a wide arc: early vocal communication, the emergence of language-based civilizations, and future possibilities shaped by technology. Speech serves here as a lens for considering how people define themselves, organize society, and form connections with one another and the wider world. The fifth edition presents an expansive, cross-disciplinary subject that brings evolution, culture, technology, and communication into conversation.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in human evolution and communication
  • Those exploring connections between language, culture, and society
  • Readers curious about technology’s role in the future of communication

Book overview

The making, rise, and future of the speaking man encapsulates not just the biological and cognitive evolution of Homo sapiens but also the dynamic relationship between culture, technology, and society. From the early developments of vocal communication to the creation of language-based civilizations and the potential of futuristic technologies, human speech is at the core of how we define ourselves as a species. Looking ahead, the speaking man will continue to evolve, shaped by forces both biological and technological, creating new possibilities for how we communicate and connect with each other-and with the world around us.
